Most Helpful Positive Review Amazing product. Hi, I am 26yrs old and have suffered from acne/spots and oily/combination skin since 16/17yrs old, having tired many different products and always changing to find one that works well. Since discovering upcircle through a subscription box, I received samples this was the coffee face scrub, herbal blend, face serum and body scrub peppermint. However, my review is based on coffee face scrub, herbal blend. I have used this for 2 weeks (with the face serum afterwards) and the difference in my facial skin is incredible. My skin feels smoother and soft to touch, a lot less oily and no spots have appeared since using the face scrub. My complexion is brighter and clean looking. Also, the face scrub does not leave your skin red or sore after use, if you have tired face scrubs in the past you will know most leave the skin red with new breakouts appearing. I would highly recommend the face scrub, you will not regret the decision buying this product. This is now a must have product for myself.
Most Helpful Critical Review Packaging leaves so much unused product I purchased this product for the natural, apothecary-like description with the intent of using it on my face. The exfoliating grounds are larger than St. Ives apricot scrub and much harder so I've used it as a body scrub. It leaves an oily residue that I have to wash away with body wash and now that I'm halfway done with the product, the metal tube makes it extremely difficult to get the rest. The only gentle thing about this product is that it doesn't feel like it has any cleansing factors.

It leaves such a weird film/residue in your face, when I scratched my face after drying my skin had this weird thin film that came off under my nails that was from the scrub. Didn't notice any change in my skin and it smells terrible, Even leaves the oily film on your fingers.
Bad face wash, excellent foot scrub 2
Girl with the Oily Skin from Sacramento, CA
Tried this as a daily cleanser first, then a sometimes cleanser. Left my face feeling even oilier than when I put it on no matter what I did. Started using it as a foot scrub instead and my feet look great!
Amazing!!!! 5
Tia from Connecticut
Most amazing cleanser/scrub! I don't care for the smell, but let me tell you my face feels and looks amazing.
Great for my combination skin! 4
abbyma from Massachusetts
I am allergic to a million and one things and have reacted to so many products. I also have crazy combination skin - very oily forehead but very dry cheeks, chin, and around my nose, but this scrub is so gentle and leaves my face feeling so smooth! Sometimes I use it everyday when I'm having flaking on my face but generally just a couple times a week, and it causes any burning sensations or discomfort! I will agree that the packaging is frustrating but it's not enough for me to not buy it. I've loved the one made for combination skin and for the winter I'm looking forward to trying the one for dry skin. All my sensitive skin people out there, give this scrub a try!

horrible 3
QueenB from TX
This scrub is no good! It left behind a slimy film on my face, not sure how its supposed to be formulated for oily skin. The packaging could use some work also. Overall, I was not impressed with this scrub.
Nice 3
Dan from Illinois
I used it as a wash and it was mostly oils, so I had to wash my face after I used this product.
Love the item and the brand 5
Megan from Vermont
Great product with great ingredients. Upon using this for the first time, I ended up finding the brand and getting a bundle pack of their items. Everything is amazing!
Love the product, hate the packaging 4
Olly from USA
I adore this face scrub, I think it smells great and it works great! I know the website says to use up to 3 times a week, but I actually use it every morning before my cleanser and I'm currently experiencing the best skin of my life. For reference, I'm in my late 20s and have dealt with moderate acne since puberty hit. The scrub, combined with my ither products, is definitely having a great impact on my skin. The only downside to this product is the packaging. It's impossible to get every squeeze out by hand. Also, every time I try to work it so that it does squeeze out, the packaging rips and product squeezes out of the little holes. It's incredibly annoying and I wish they would change to some other recyclable method.
Amazing 5
Lysa from Hawaii
My skin has been a combination of dry, flaky, textured, and oily due to wearing the disposable masks but this face scrub saved me! After using it my skin felt so soft and clean, it got rid of texture and i definitely am noticing a major difference. I may also add that I've ditched disposable masks and started using homemade ones and that probably helped too.
great product, bad packaging 5
kcaps from Michigan
first, the product inside the tube: incredible. it does leave a balm residue feeling on your face after you use it - like a thin layer of shea butter. I have oily skin, and this did not bother me or cause issues later in the day with shine/oil. it absorbs! it did wonders as well to clear my skin!! but the packaging. I hate aluminum tubes so much. they crack and open, leaking product through the holes. this one was impossible to squeeze out the last third. I tried to roll it up like a toothpaste tube in the end, but that was kinda difficult to do - especially if your hands are slick from the balmy texture of the scrub. maybe an aluminum tin or jar would be easier! I'll come back to this if they ever change the package.
Lovely facial scrub 5
Vicki P. from Undisclosed
This is such a great product. Smells amazing and is a thorough but gentle facial scrub. I tend to use it every other day. You don't need to use a lot either. I find it works best to wash my face with the chai soap afterwards to completely remove any residue.
Love it! 5
Ellie P. from Undisclosed
This is the first UpCircle product I tried and now I have bought all their products... I love this face scrub, it is exfoliating and makes your skin so so soft!
Smells absolutely divine, the grounds 5
Rebecca M. from Undisclosed
Smells absolutely divine, the grounds are just the right consistency without feeling harsh (as scrubs sometimes can) and it doubles up as a bit of a face mask treat if you leave it on for a few minutes so the oils can sink in. Leaves my skin feeling so lovely and soft. I'd definitely recommend getting the tube squeezer as well. I thought I'd run out of scrub, but when I cut the tube open to clean it for recycling I found I had another few applications left! Bonus!
I really love this scrub! 5
Emma G. from Undisclosed
I really love this scrub! Not too intense granules with a lovely smooth/hydrated feeling after which I have never had before in this type of product. As well the coffee smell is the perfect pick me up in the morning!
Nice smell and great exfoliation 4
Anna C. from Undisclosed
It smells lovely, makes my face feel very clean after use and certainly gets the blood flowing which gives your skin a nice glow after.The only downside is it's very messy so I'd recommend using it whilst in the shower maybe.
I love the ethos of 5
Raiona T. from Undisclosed
I love the ethos of the whole Up-Circle brand - they recycle so many discarded ingredients (like the coffee in this product). The products always look sleek and high end. I'm still trying this face scrub out but it's a winner so far. Just remember to shake the tube! I didn't on the last scrub I tried and struggled getting the last of the product out. Basically, read the packaging and do what it says! You'll get your money's worth that way :wink:

Its been 6 months i have been using it. I have never thought of going for any other product since using this. Amazing!
This is one of my 5
Sheridan H. from Undisclosed
This is one of my favourite skin care products of all time. Leaves skin feeling so soft and smells amazing. I have recommended this and other Upcircle products to friends and families.
Great product! 5
Jade A. from Undisclosed
Really lovely quality product. I feel like it exfoliates really well. It does have a slight oily texture and leaves a bit of a residue on the skin but I always use the face mask after anyway. Love the companys ethos too and the fact that it's recyclable. It does go everywhere in my skin but this cant be helped. Will definitely be purchasing again. Easy website to use and love that its free shipping over £20. Such a bargain!
Smells amazing and really noticing 5

Smells amazing and really noticing a difference to my skin, it feels so soft and clean after I've used it!
This is messy to use 4
Nikki R. from Undisclosed
This is messy to use but worth it. It leaves my skin feeling soft and refreshed and smells lovely. It's not harsh like other scrubs I've used.
Meh 2
Susan from Undisclosed
I was desperate to like this brand as I love their concept but out of five products purchased I've only liked two. This gave me dry patches, something I've never suffered with before and it leaves a weird residue until you wash your face with a separate cleanser.
Overall great! 4
Samantha R. from Undisclosed
I've been using this product for about a month now and I am very happy with it! It exfoliates very well without irritating my skin and my acne has been getting better each week since I started using this and the cleansing balm. Clean, clear, soft skin. Downsides are that sometimes it leaks in the shower no matter what I do to stop it, I have to cleanse my face after because it does feel a tiny bit sticky or too moisturized, And you definitely need the key to roll it down so you can get all the product. Overall 8/10 definitely love it
Buy this scrub, it's amazing! 5
Tabitha W. from Undisclosed
Leaves my skin feeling super smooth but also super moisturised! A little goes a long way which makes this great value. Good for your skin and good for the planet :earth_africa:... What's not to love? :heart:?:sparkles:
